Paula David

Landscape Artist in Oil and Pastel

After a long and successful career in financial services and higher education, Paula David has recently reconnected with her artistic roots as a professional artist. She paints what she loves, capturing the beauty and the character of Cape Cod and the Islands in oil and pastel.

Paula and her husband reside in Worcester and Brewster, Mass. They combined their love of the Cape with their love of mermaids to found Cape Mermaid, an apparel and home goods brand that celebrates the coastal lifestyle.

Paula is a graduate of S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University. She has studied with many of the Cape’s foremost artists including Jeanne Rosier Smith, Deborah Quinn-Munson, Rosalie Nadeau, Paul Schulenburg, and Steve Kennedy. In addition to her professional pursuits, she is a member of the Pastel Society of Cape Cod, a member of Children’s Circle of Care at Boston Children’s Hospital, and a former member of the Board of Directors of the Worcester Boys and Girls Club.
